Early on in the week Seth Moniz took top honors with the Explorer Junior's title. Not to be outdone was Josh Burke who finished right behind and made the best of the less than excellent conditions by posting some of the highest heat totals of the whole Explorer division. Tommy Coleman made the finals of Explorer Menehunes and young Cole McCaffray made the final of the Super Mini Grom's division.

In the Open Division the surfing level of everyone on the team remained extremely high. When finals day came around the waves picked up, the sun came out and three of our surfers had found themselves slotted into the finals. Seth Moniz in Open Men's; Eithan Osborne in Open Juniors; and Brodi Sale in the Open Boys final. For Brodi, his final saw him sitting solidly in second the whole heat, and in the dying minutes he pulled out a 6.33 that hoisted him into first and gave him the Open Boys win. Eithan Osborne trailed most of the way during his four man final, but was able to come from behind with a lip tail slide that gave him the nod and rocketed him into first for his first ever national title and the Open Juniors win.

Seth Moniz went blow for blow with Mickey Clarke during the whole Open Men's final and was able to squeak out the victory and take home both Open Men's and Explorer Men's NSSA National titles. He joined his older brother Josh, who won last year's Open Men's title, with his name now on the Open Men's title trophy. It was a more than fitting way to cap off his NSSA career and we can't wait to see Seth swiftly progress into the big leagues. Congrats to all of our surfers and we'll see everyone next year!
